    John Fyock, the first man to clear land that now constitutes Paint Township was born in Franklin County on August 23, 1772. He came with his father, Jacob Fyock, to Bedford County in 1790 at the age of 18.
    Jacob Fyock settled on land that later became Paint Township and the family resided on this homestead where Jacob Fyock, the progenitor of the Fyock families of Pennsylvania, died in 1818 and was buried on his homestead near what is today Hollsopple.
    Jacob Fyock was born on dec.18, 1741, in Thalesweiler, Germany, and the church archives there have recorded that Jacob Veiock (now Fyock) was "ging to Pennsylvanien in Mai 1764." He arrived in Philadelphia on the ship Sarah on Sept. 20, 1764.
    Jacob Fyock settled in Cumberland County in the area that is now Franklin County and had a tract of land named Fiasone warranted to him in 1773, near Green Castle in Antrim Township.
    The Fyock family was affiliated with the Snow Hill Cloister in Waynesboro, which is an offspring of the Ephrata Cloister of Lancaster County. In later years many of the Fyock family members became ministers of the Bedford County Seventh Day Baptist Church which is a branch of the Snow Hill Cloister while others became ministers in the old Dunkard churches.

Daniel also had one daughter, Mary Catherine, who became the wife of Thomas O'Neil. This family resided near New Enterprise and was members of the Salemsville German Seventh Day Baptist Church.
    Samuel Fyock, married Barbara Holsopple of Paint Township, and the family resided near the Seanor area of Paint Township until the Civil War period where he was a justice of the peace in 1869, During the Civil War he suffered much loss at the hands of the non-unionists. His barn was burned and his money stolen. He then moved into Bedford County residing in Woodbury Township since 1865. Samuel's sons, George and Charles Fyock, moved back into the Windber area during the time of the coal boom. They were in the construction business and were bricklayers becoming well-known citizens of the area.

Here they raised their family of at least five known children were taken from them during a flu epidemic that raged through the township. Family legend passes down the story of how the youngsters all died, one after the other, and were buried in a small gravesite behind the old homestead. Neighbors in the area, even today, can tell this story, that was passed down to them from their grandparents . One story is told that while the Fyock family was burying one of the youngsters they returned to their home to find another had died.
